Written by GMA Garnet | 5/23/2024

 

GMA Garnet Group has secured board approval for a significant investment in extensive upgrades to the Port Gregory facility.

This strategic move underscores GMA's commitment to enhancing its operations in Western Australia, extending the life of the Port Gregory mine, and ensuring a continued supply of product for our global customers and markets.

With a strong tie to the Mid-West, these upgrades highlight GMA's dedication to investing in, and supporting, the region, its operations, and the community.

The upgrade will involve a three-stage investment approach, scheduled to unfold over the next decade. The first stage of construction is set to commence at the end of 2024, marking the beginning of a new era for the Port Gregory facility.

"This significant investment in Port Gregory demonstrates our commitment to the future of mining our deposit in Western Australia for decades to come, building on GMA’s already 40 year history of operating the Port Gregory mine," said Grant Cox, CEO, GMA Garnet Group.

"By reinforcing the life of the mine and expanding our capacity, we are ensuring that GMA remains a leader in the garnet industry, providing quality products to our customers worldwide."
